Bill: Military Conduct and Institutional Reform Act 2600
Details
Submitted by[?]: Dariusian Separatists
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 2602
Description[?]:
| WE believe these measures are both vital for reasons of democracy and human rights and yet also in our national strategic interest. IT will allow fair participation of all citizens in military and furthermore it will maintain our defensive posture whilst lowering the seemingly belligerent tone of our foreign policy without compromising our defence. Amendments are a possibility and we are open to negotiation. |
